Welcome everyone to Family Talk. It's a ministry of the James Dobson Family Institute, supported by

listeners just like you. I'm Dr. James Dobson, and I'm thrilled that you've joined us.

Well, welcome to another edition of Dr. James Dobson's Family Talk.

I'm Roger Marsh, and today we're bringing you part one of a powerful and deeply moving conversation

that Dr. Dobson had with his dear friends, Victor and Eileen Marks, of all things possible, ministries.

This is one of our most requested Best of Programs of the Year, and by the way, it's featured on the 2025 Best of Broadcast collection that's available right now. I will share more details about how you can get your own copy later on in the broadcast, but first, let me introduce our special guests. Victor and Eileen Marks were not only dear friends of Dr. Dobson and his wife Shirley.

They're also making an incredible impact worldwide. Through their ministry, they help restore

the lives of trauma and abuse survivors across Iraq, Syria, North Africa, and Southeast Asia.

Eileen is an accomplished author and a second-degree black belt who works alongside Victor. And I think

you're going to be amazed with what they have to share with us on today's program. Now, before we

begin, I should note that the program does cover sensitive topics and may not be suitable for younger

listeners. And now let's revisit Dr. Dobson's classic conversation with Victor and Eileen Marks

talking about being a dangerous gentleman

for the Lord. This very important conversation right now in today's edition of Dr. James Dobson's

Family Talk.

Well, greetings, everyone, and welcome to Family Talk. I'm James Dobson, and I want to introduce you to a fascinating man named Victor Marks and his wife.

Eileen, Victor is an author, he's a speaker, he's a writer, he's a former Marine, is that correct?

Yes, sir. How old were you when you joined me?

I went in at 18.

And you did that on your own?

That sure did.

Served under President Reagan, who you know during this time.
